Unlike other treks, our Salkantay experience blends adventure, culture, and comfort in one journey. You’ll hike through dramatic landscapes — from snowy peaks to lush cloud forests — and explore hidden Inca sites before reaching Machu Picchu. Along the way, enjoy gourmet meals prepared by our chefs, a traditional Pachamanca experience, and even a hot jacuzzi under the stars. Our small groups, professional bilingual guides, and super porters ensure a safe, personalized, and unforgettable adventure. With exclusive details like live Andean music and champagne dinners, this trek goes far beyond a hike — it’s a once-in-a-lifetime cultural immersion.

Start your trek with a 4:00 AM pick-up from your hotel in Cusco and a scenic 3-hour drive to Soraypampa (3,800 m). After breakfast with your chef and trekking team, begin with a round-trip hike to the turquoise Humantay Lake, surrounded by snowy peaks. Descend and continue the Salkantay trail for 2 hours toward Salkantay Pampa, where you will enjoy a freshly prepared lunch. Afterward, hike gradually uphill for 2 more hours to reach Ichupata campsite (4,000 m), located at the base of the Salkantay Glacier. Here, you’ll spend your first night in personal tents under the stars, surrounded by stunning mountain views.
